           DIGEST  :    This resolution declares October 1, 2013, as Plan  
          Your Giving Day.

           ANALYSIS  :    

          This resolution makes the following legislative findings:

          1.Gift planning opens up options for donors, including  
            identifying assets for donation that may otherwise be  
            unavailable to charities.

          2.Gift planning enables donors who are currently unable or  
            reluctant to make a gift to establish a plan to make a gift of  
            their assets at a later date.

          3.Gift planning proves to be gratifying for donors who designate  
            their giving to organizations that share values similar to the  
            donor.

          4.Gift planning has a major impact on the future viability of  
            charitable organizations that are highly dependent on the  
            philanthropic spirit of its donors.

          planning awareness by declaring October 1, 2013, as California  
          Plan Your Giving Day.
